Insurance

We strongly recommend that each guest purchase comprehensive accident, medical, baggage and trip cancellation/interruption insurance when space is reserved. Please be advised that if a guest chooses NOT to purchase trip insurance, WE WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY FINANCIAL DISAPPOINTMENT CAUSED BY REASONS BEYOND OUR CONTROL. In the event that it is necessary for NAI'A to cancel or interrupt a charter due to weather or any "Act of God" which is beyond our control, there will be no refund or credit issued other than that outlined in our Named Storm Policy. We also highly recommend diver accident insurance.

Cancellation and Change Policy for Individual Bookings

75% of the deposit will be forfeited (excluding the non-refundable deposit) for cancellation within 180 days of departure.

No refund for cancellation within 90 days of departure*.

After the deposit is received, all revisions will be subject to a $50.00 per person handling fee.

No refunds will be issued for unused or partially used dive packages.

*Our policy is intended to be fair to our guests and yet prevent the loss of income to our business. Due to our remote location and the nature of liveaboards, we must depend upon advanced reservations. If a reservation is cancelled within 90 days prior to departure we will refund the total paid less an administration fee ONLY if the vessel is full and we manage to rebook the space. Substitution of passengers is permitted.
